As title says, I don't really want to get Ryan christened... but his Dad does. All of their family have been christened and there's even a family christening gown - when a baby is christened in it, their name is embroidered into it (which I do think is a lovely idea). But none of our families are particularly religious, and I'd rather Ryan had the chance to decide for himself when he is old enough to make that decision. If we're not religious, why should we get him christened? Is it not just an excuse for a party in this case? Would it be unreasonable to really insist on not getting him christened, and have some kind of naming ceremony instead? x
